拍品描述
China, late 18th to early 19th century. Ink, watercolors, gouache, and lapis lazuli on paper. Finely painted with a phoenix and crane perched on rocks at the center panels, surrounded by various birds, including ducks, pheasants, parrots, and quails among others, with auspicious flowers in the background, all on a vibrant blue ground.Provenance: From the private collection of a Belgian aristocrat and thence by descent. Condition: Good condition with expected minor wear, few tiny pinholes, watermarks, small tears with minute touchups, and tiny losses mostly to the edges.Dimensions: Image size 187 x 158 cm, Size incl. frame 192 x 165 cmMounted and framed. (2)These wallpaper panels are painted on an exceptionally rare lapis lazuli ground, sourced from lapis lazuli along the Silk Road, primarily from the Badakhshan region, which spans parts of today's Afghanistan and Tajikistan. The vibrant blue hue of the ground was traditionally reserved for the highest echelons of Chinese aristocracy or the Imperial Court, making its use in these panels particularly significant. The intensity of the decoration, featuring a multitude of birds and flowers in a garden setting, employs a rare and symbolic language. The phoenix birds, symbolizing harmony and rebirth, are explicitly tied to the Imperial Court, particularly the court of the Empress.Trade listing comparison:Compare a closely related set of four wallpaper panels depicting the same subject on a similar lapis lazuli blue ground, dated circa 1825, 230 x 184 cm in size, sold by Chalet White, code number 10375, for GBP 18,000 or approx.
